How to Set Cruise Control on BYD S7?
2 Answers
BYD S7 cruise control setting method: Press the ON/OFF button at the top of the cruise control lever, maintain the throttle position, and after approximately three seconds, push the lever downward once to complete the speed setting. The basic functions of the cruise control system include: setting constant speed, deceleration or coasting, resuming, accelerating, and deactivating or canceling. When the speed setting switch SET is pressed, it stores the current speed and automatically maintains that speed. The BYD S7 is BYD's new mid-to-large-size SUV, with dimensions of 4840mm in length, 1855mm in width, 1720mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2735mm. The front suspension system of the BYD S7 is a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension system is a multi-link independent suspension.
Setting the cruise control on the BYD S7 is quite straightforward. Before driving, ensure the car is started and reaches a speed above 30 km/h. On the left side of the steering wheel, you can find the cruise control button cluster—press the CRUISE button lightly to activate the system. Then, use the +/- buttons to adjust the speed to your desired setting, which will be displayed on the screen (e.g., setting it to 60 km/h for highway cruising). Once set, simply release the accelerator, and the car will maintain a constant speed automatically. To temporarily cancel, just press the brake or hit the CANCEL button. However, a reminder: avoid using cruise control in heavy city traffic or on winding roads, as it only maintains speed and doesn’t handle steering, which could lead to accidents. I often use this feature during long-distance drives—it saves fuel, reduces fatigue, and enhances safety. Make it a habit to regularly check the buttons for responsiveness to prevent malfunctions.
